In Portugal risk of hospitalization from Omicron is 75% lower than Delta

Researchers from Portugal reported a 75% risk reduction in hospitalizations for individuals infected with Omicron variant of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) compared to the Delta variant and a shorter length of stay and lower mortality if hospitalization does occur. Their paper is currently available on the medRxiv* preprint server while undergoing peer review.
